UNSPSC 42192404 Medical carts (Commodity) encompasses automated medication dispensing equipment and related pharmacy management systems used in healthcare and educational settings, as evidenced by recent state and local procurement of smart medication carts, medication dispensers, and pharmacy benefit management infrastructure. State and local buyers in this code include community colleges, veterans' facilities, counties, and health consortiums. The work solicited ranges from single-unit purchases of branded automated medication dispensers with onsite installation and training to cooperative purchasing frameworks intended to serve multiple participating jurisdictions. Issuing bodies span educational institutions, state facility operators, and county health administration divisions.

Recent procurement activity appears concentrated in New York, Illinois, and Florida. SUNY Rockland Community College issued an RFQ (RFBRCC2026014, due July 16, 2026) for a SimServeRx ESS Advanced medication dispensing smart cart with onsite implementation, setup, and training, limited to authorized resellers or distributors of the manufacturer. The State of Illinois, through the Illinois Veterans Home at LaSalle, posted a small purchase IFB (26497DVALASALB51721, due March 31, 2026) for one MedDispense Automated Medication Dispenser Base 72 unit and supply tower with delivery, installation, configuration, and two days of onsite training to be completed by June 30, 2026. Sourcewell, a Minnesota cooperative purchasing entity, issued a statewide RFP (#061626, due June 16, 2026) for Law Enforcement Equipment on behalf of multiple participating counties and jurisdictions across Washington and the United States, though this opportunity appears misaligned with the medical carts code scope and likely represents a coding mismatch in the source data. Collier County, Florida issued an RFP (25-8414, due April 9, 2026) for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services covering approximately 7,200 total enrolled and covered members with historical spending near $8.7 million annually, though this procurement addresses administrative services rather than equipment and also represents a misalignment with the medical carts commodity code.
